The X Factor hasn’t even returned to our screens yet and already, the tour dates have been revealed.

The ITV show will launch this August and the judges are currently touring the UK, searching for talent and hopefuls that stand a chance of winning the show.

Most of the singers that make it as far as the finals, will also land a spot on the lucrative live arena and if you want to see them live in a city near you, then clear your schedule for the dates revealed below.
